Ignorance of British laws on consent

Explain the British Broadcasting Corporation that during the trial, Nikzad declared that I was not familiar with British laws on consent., citing «cultural differences». The court rejected this defence and emphasised that the law clearly protects minors, regardless of the offender's personal or cultural context.

The defence lawyer told the court that There were linguistic difficulties and a «cultural barrier» between Nikzad's country of origin., where child marriage was common. She said: «I'm not saying that this means he reasonably believed that the complainant was consenting, but rather that there is a reason why he might have misunderstood.«.

The court does not accept the justification.

The Glasgow court He completely rejected the argument that there was a lack of understanding of the local rules on consent.. It is based on the principle that ignorance of the law does not excuse criminal liability. The result is a nine-year prison sentence for Sadeq Nikzad after he was found guilty of raping a 15-year-old girl in a city flat.

The court emphasised that The victim was not of the legal age to consent to sexual relations under UK law. The consent of a minor is not legally valid, and this automatically makes the act a serious offence. During the trial, the jury heard the victim's testimony, who He stated that he said “no” several times. and that he was only able to leave when a third person knocked on the door
